is a Japanese comedy unit (''kombi'') consisting of two , and . Sometimes also known as , they are one of the most popular ''owarai'' ''kombi'' coming from Yoshimoto Kōgyō in Tokyo. Their name literally means "Vice manager, Section manager", and is a reference to the titles of two visitors at the bar in which they were working part-time before they were discovered by Yoshimoto. They were originally a three-man group with the name , or "Vice Manager, Section Manager, President", but after the third member of the group left, the name was reduced to its current version. Kōmoto is the ''boke'' of the duo, and the much quieter Inoue is the ''tsukkomi''. Both comedians are natives of Okayama. Inoue has a reputation among ''owarai geinin'' for being handsome, and he has scored high on Yoshimoto's "handsomest ''geinin'' ranking" for the last five years. Kōmoto is most famous for his strange faces and high-pitched character voices, although he is also a very talented singer, and is well respected by other ''owarai geinin'' for his skills. He is often heard squealing the line . In March 2003, Kōmoto married Naomi Shigemoto (former ''Osaka Performance Doll'' member), and they now have a son. Kōmoto appeared in the NTV drama, ''14-year-old Mother'', playing the uncle of the 14-year-old pregnant girl. ==External links== * (Yoshimoto Kōgyō official profile ) * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jichō Kachō」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
